Challenge
The objective was to facilitate the loading of fiberglass into a container called a pulper, improving efficiency and safety in bale handling.
Solution
The proposed solution included the design and implementation of two automated depalletizing lines, consisting of a 6-meter stroke Cartesian robot and two stainless steel tunnels. The Cartesian system picks up the bale and places it on a conveyor belt where the operator, after removing the wrapping, can automatically direct the material into the stainless-steel tunnel without coming into contact with the fiberglass. The system is controlled by software developed according to LCS standards.
- Pallet storage with 3 bays.
- Robot: Gantry Cartesian system with gripper.
- Material handling system: Conveyor belt and stainless steel loading tunnel for fiberglass transport into the pulper.
- Optimized management: Facilitated loading and supervision software.
Key technical data
- 2 depalletizing lines for simultaneous operations
- 3 pallet loading bays for each line
- 2 robots for handling glass fiber bales with a 6-meter run
